BioShock 2

this was quite a exhausting costume. Needless to say I was a little dumb thinking I could get this done in less than 2 months. Surprisingly it turned out awesome and I'm very proud.

So it was a project I had some help from my awesome father. LEDS were all done by him and he did a awesome job wiring it, he even put a fan in there so I wouldn't die.

the suit was originally a standard white suit I got from online. I tea dyed it for the base kind of grungde. Then hand painted everything. Lots of hours and late nights spent into the pain job. Sad to say I got lazy as I kept going so I will probably add more too it. I do want to add the writing on her suit but I still cant find out what it freaking says on her suit. So when I'm 100% on what its says I'll paint that on.

man a ton of the stuff was just stuff we found that looked perfect for what I needed so its like a Frankenstein costume.

The helmet was a hamster ball that I used double sided tape and added foam layers to it. The 'welding' lines are just rope glued. The little lights on the side are just bottle caps with the center cut out replaced with clear plastic. The top bit is pvc pipe along with part of lamp.

the shoulder/neck was a bucket cut to fit my shoulders then added foam and plastic wing nuts.

the tanks on the back are just two plastic bottles put together with some foam for the straps.

base for the arms were kid soccer shin guards. the needle arm whats just platics sheets ontop of wood bases attached to the shin guards. the bottle on the side was...well a baby bottle. the rivets on the edges are just little beads of hot glue. The bit on the end by me elbow was just the end of a oil bottle. The front of the needle was a cheap dollar store water gun tube.

knee parts were just fabric with painted mint cases on the sides.

shins were parts of shin guards and pieces of plastic we had extra from the bucket for my head.
